  10. Looks like a Hiram B. Scutt patent, dated June 18, 1878. This wire is called "Scutt's Arrow Plate Sheet Metal Barb" Can't really tell by the pictures, but if it is a split diamond it would be an Oliv...
  11. RRamoutar, there were 5 of these that showed up at the Kansas Barbed Wire Collectors show a couple of years ago. I tried to buy a couple of them from the guy that bought them first. He said he wanted ...

  15. Very nice, hard to find blanket. Probably from the 20's. The tag would help date it, lol
  16. Rope or leather thong attached as not to loose it when they were in the top of a tree (or on the ground for that matter) https://www.google.com/search?q=Tree+Logging+Bucking+Felling+Wedge+antique&b...
  17. My Dad used to collect axes and hatchets. They are just too heavy to carry around to the shows. He would have loved to add this one to his collection. He stopped adding to this group and re kindled a ...

  28. Thinking about taking my fence tags to the barbwire swap in Kansas in a few weeks. got any pictures of yours???
  29. Here's one like it that sold for 60 bucks in 2007. They were out in the 70's so 1977 is probably the date of manufacture........ http://www.liveauctioneers.com/item/4228858
  30. Try looking up "peyote bird squash blossom necklace" on Google and/or eBay. Most of them were made by Navajo silversmiths, but not all. Without a touch-mark it's going to be hard to tell.

  35. Still not too popular (aluminum that is) Check ebay, Vintage Ricardo Form-Fitter Aluminum Spurs & Vintage WESTERN Riding SPURS stamped **RICARDO** Last pair brought more because they had marked straps.
  36. Update: I picked up a Arizona’s New Testament Manual by Linch a while back. Extremely scarce, but I can mark it off my list. Still looking for the others. Let me know if they are out there somewhere?
  37. Must be fairly rare? You gonna restore it? I can't find a good picture of a restored unit on the net. You might like this http://buzzcoil.brinkster.net/k-q/19060420kneeland2.jpg
  38. I've seen the new scooters (kits) for sale here and there. Adults (big kids) race them now. There's a big following in CA for these. I would want an original. Two sold on ebay that I saw, one without ...
